Title: tyres
Post by: Bunker on March 10, 2017, 17:54
Hi all

A bit of advice please, I have 17" aftermarket alloys on my MR (not a personal choice, just the way it came) and I quite like them. I need to get new tyres and was thinking 205x40x17 0n front and 225x45x17 on the back, has anyone done this or am I being daft?

Thanks in advance

That would depend on the wheel spec

2154517 / 2253517 might be another option depending on the width and offset

Mine are 8j and I run 2454017

Oh, don't know the offset! all I know all 17's are the same size and sitting on 205x40x17 at present?

Either of the above will be fine then.

Just to be clear, 2154517 on front and 2253517 on the back would work? Probably a dumb question... so sorry in advance!
